The trio then huddled up together including the chief doctor at the corner of the room, seemingly to discuss something important as they threw side glances towards Duan Li every now and then.
Looking at them like that, Duan Li was quite suspicious with this impromptu discussion of theirs.
After a while, they finally finished from whatever it was they were doing as the princ.i.p.al approached Duan Li.
"Now that you had applied for the Lord cla.s.s, as the princ.i.p.al, naturally I have the authority to approve it on the spot. However, after further discussion, we have decided to put ourselves as your mentor and advisors to help you out!"
Hearing this, Duan Li"s brows creased together a little bit as his suspicions grew.
Why does something feels off about this?
"What is a mentor and advisor?" he asked out.
"Ahem! Well, a mentor is someone whom will be in charge of guiding a new student that has decided to take up the Lord cla.s.s as their occupation! As you know, this occupation is really, truly difficult! Some students would decide to drop and change to another occupation halfway because of that, and the academy has found this to be a problem!"
"Therefore, with a mentor, a new Lord cla.s.s student would have someone to seek help and guidance to resolve their issues with! Otherwise, there would be no one who would be inclined to become a Lord cla.s.s with such losses and no one to help them!"
"Thus, I have applied myself as your mentor! Don"t worry, I am quite experienced in this occupation!" said the princ.i.p.al with a tone full of confidence as he clasped his hands behind his back.
However, Duan Li couldn"t help but to feel that something was amiss,but he could just not pinpoint out what it was.
"I see, in that case it would be good to have the princ.i.p.al to guide me!" nodded Duan Li as he bowed after thinking for a while.
"Great! Now both senior teacher w.a.n.g Guozhi and Ling Yu, as well as the chief doctor Ju Zhianhu here, has vouched themselves to become your advisor!"
"An advisor would help in filtering out tasks and missions and find those that would be suitable for the party of the Lord cla.s.s to handle according to their overall level and ranks!"
"Furthermore, an advisor could also help in many areas which we will inform you later on." continued the princ.i.p.al.
Hmm.. why are they so proactive in this?
After shaking his head, Duan Li replied, "Okay! I will follow this arrangement, thank you Princ.i.p.al!"
This was because, even if he were to rack out his brains, it would still be useless to find out if these elders were playing scams or frauds on him. After all, he had just enrolled into the academy and hadn"t yet integrated everything.
In addition, since the princ.i.p.al has mentioned the benefits of having a mentor and advisors, to Duan Li right now, that would be extremely vital in speeding up his star ranks. Thus, he didn"t put too much thought into it.
"Now the final procedure before I approve your application is, you need to name your party!" said the princ.i.p.al.
The name of the party?
Hmm...
"I got it! Please name it as the Mysterious Party!"
Ohh?
Mysterious Party?
What an interesting name!
At this time, Duan Li hadn"t yet thought of how the name of this party of his would become the talk of the academy, where many different rumours was a.s.sociated with his party.
But that would be a story for another time.
The princ.i.p.al then nodded as he jotted down the name of Duan Li"s party.
"Alright then, we will go back now to the office to arrange a few things for your new party. Until then, be sure to recruit your followers!"
The princ.i.p.al exitted the room along with w.a.n.g Guozhi and Ling Yu, leaving only the chief doctor with Duan Li in the infirmary.
"Young master, this disciple would have to go back to the royal palace as well for another matter. Here, take these jade slips. If young master needed anything, just contact me through the blue jade!"
The chief doctor handed out two jade slips, one green - to sense his life force and another blue - for contact purposes.
Duan Li was still having a trouble in trying to adjust himself being called young master by an elder, a high ranking one at that. Nevertheless, he just nodded.
"Alright, but could chief doctor please prepare me some advance books regarding the art of medicine and concoction that would not be available in this academy? I would appreciate it very much!" requested Duan Li while still calling the other party as the chief doctor to respect the latter"s status.
"Sure, that wouldn"t be a problem at all young master!" replied the chief doctor as he bowed.
After the chief doctor left the infirmary, Duan Li followed suit not long after that. He was navigating along the corrider while cupping his chin, contemplating regarding his Lord cla.s.s occupation.
In his mind, Duan Li already has the names of the potential candidates to be invited and become his followers. The problem now was tough, would they be willing to become his followers?
This was something that Duan Li couldn"t help but to feel a little bit troubled with. After all, he only just knew those people for a few days and their friendship wasn"t yet to the point where they would just agree to him.
Sighing deeply, Duan Li decided to just try it out. Looking at the time, it was about noon, so Duan Li headed down to the cafeteria.
"There they are!" said Duan Li inwardly after he scanned the surrounding with the upgraded version of the Soul sense from the Tetra Unsealing ability.
Duan Li was really amazed by this upgraded version of the soul sense ability made by the Mirealithians. With a single thought, any object or a person that he wanted to find would blink in red colour!
"Huh? Hey its Duan Li!" waved Shen Lu from afar with a very wide smile. On the same table, there was also w.a.n.g Xiaolun and Xiahou Yu. It seems that these trio have started to hang out together more often.
When Duan Li sat on the same table with them, they felt quite alarmed with what they were feeling, except Xiahou Yu whom just continued to eat her meals.
"This qi fluctuation... Middle stage Foundation establishment realm?" exclaimed both Shen Lu and w.a.n.g Xiaolun in their minds.
If they remembered correctly, just a few days ago, Duan Li was still at the late stage of the Qi condensation realm and had to supress himself even lower due to his weak physical body.
But now, this fella right in front of them had advanced significantly to next realm!
Could the reason why they can"t find him these past few days was because the latter was undergoing some closed-door cultivation?
Or did he encountered a heavenly treasure that could advance one"s realm that much?
Either way, this kinds of progress was way too horrifying for them!
This was especially the case for Shen Lu whom was feeling to be entirely defeated right now. Before, he was proud to be called as a genius, but when Duan Li was already able to breath through the pores, he had given up on such a t.i.tle and pa.s.sed it onto Duan Li.
But at least at that time, he was so much more stronger than Duan Li!
Now however, the gap was so close that he felt so anxious about it. After all, he was now at the late stage of the Foundation establishment realm, while Duan Li was at the middle stage!
Although they wanted to ask Duan Li on how did he advanced so fast in so little time really badly, they decided to suppress such feelings. Every cultivator has their own secrets and Duan Li might feel troubled if they asked him.
Thus, as a fellow cultivator with both honor and pride, they just shook their head and exhaled as they decided to train even more harder in their cultivation!
If only they knew that it only took Duan Li a single day to reach this far, they would probably choked themselves and interrogate Duan Li frantically without backing out even a single bit.
Who cares about honor and pride!
